The Boise WaterShed uses public art to teach water conservation

Down a steep hill off Chinden Boulevard, Joplin Road cuts a curvy path through rocks and scratchy brush. After a short distance, a security guard motions for approaching cars to stop. Emerging from his parked SUV, badge and belt buckle glinting in the afternoon sun, the guard scribbles visitors' names, addresses and phone numbers on his clipboard. It feels eerily more like entering the set of Erin Brockovich than taking a trip out to the Boise WaterShed.

Bei Lounge opened May 18 in what was once Yen Ching Bakery.

Theresa May quits, nearly 230,000 Idahoans will hit the road this weekend for a rather damp Memorial Day, Boise School District classes are out for the summer and critics lambaste Disney's remake of Aladdin.
